Summary
This study tests whether giving psilocybin (a psychedelic drug) while people are under general anesthesia can safely reduce depression symptoms. Ten adults with major depression will receive either psilocybin or placebo during four sessions, all while asleep. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and if it can help depression without the person knowing which treatment they received.
